A directional ellipse to describe directional behavior and player activity area in soccer

Abstract: This study aimed to compare four standard deviational ellipse models to assess directional behavior and player activity area in four small-sided games (SSG) of soccer played on pitches with the same width (40 m) and different lengths (30, 40, 50, and 60 m). Fourteen participants played four 7-a-side SSGs on each of the four pitch sizes. Based on GPS data, four ellipse models were calculated for each outfield player and pitch size: major ranges (MR) measuring standard deviation in fixed length and width directi… Show more

“…Finally, directional distribution ellipses were used to analyze the spatiotemporal distribution of stores [42]. This is a simple geoprocessing tool that provides essential information to understand different location patterns along a time scale [43]. For the division, we considered the opening decade of each store.…”
